Abstract:
The article deals with integrating the inertial navigation unit implemented into the system of controlling the robot. It analyses the dynamic properties of the sensors of the inertial unit, for example, gyroscopes and accelerometers. The implementation of the original system of controlling the mobile robot on the basis of autonomous navigation systems is a dominant part of the article. The integration of navigational information represents the actual issue of reaching higher accuracy of required navigational parameters using more or less accurate navigation systems. The inertial navigation is the navigation based on uninterrupted evaluation of the position of a navigated object by utilizing the sensors that are sensitive to motion, that is, gyroscopes and accelerometers, which are regarded as primary inertial sensors or other sensors located on the navigated object.

Abstract:
With the fast development of artificial intelligence, robotics, and embedded system along with sensor technologies, the speed control mechanism is required in various other applications such as automatic or self-piloting aircraft, auto-driven vehicles, auto driven lifts and much other robotics based automation plants, etc. For each unpredictable and progressed vehicular framework accompanies a better route that is fit for utilizing the two GPS and INS related sign. There have been a noteworthy number of research works being completed towards creating sliding mode control framework. In case of inaccurate navigational data or no availability of navigational service, the cruise control could also stop working. Hence, there is a need to evolve up with a novel system offering reliable and fault tolerant navigation system in order to minimize the dependencies on GPS-based information and maximize the utilization of INS based information. This manuscript presents a dynamic cruise control system to achieve better navigation under uncertainties. The performance of the system is analyzed by incorporating sliding mode and fuzzy logic and achieves better accuracy in tracking error, computational complexity (28 sec of simulation time) under chattering and switching action operation.

Abstract:
Taking into account current trends in the development of ergatic maritime transport systems, the factors of the navigator’s influence on vessel control processes were determined. Within the framework of the research hypothesis, to improve navigation safety, it is necessary to apply predictive data mining models and automated vessel control. The paper proposes a diagram of the ergatic vessel control system and a model for identifying the influence of the navigator “human factor” during navigation. Within the framework of the model based on the principles of navigator decision trees, prediction by data mining means is applied, taking into account the identifiers of the occurrence of a critical situation. Based on the prediction results, a method for optimal vessel control in critical situations was developed, which is triggered at the nodes of the navigator decision tree, which reduces the likelihood of a critical impact on vessel control. The proposed approaches were tested in the research laboratory “Development of decision support systems, ergatic and automated vessel control systems”. The use of the Navi Trainer 5,000 navigation simulator (Wärtsilä Corporation, Finland) and simulation of the navigation safety control system for critical situations have confirmed its effectiveness. As a result of testing, it was determined that the activation of the system allowed reducing the likelihood of critical situations by 18–54 %. In 11 % of cases, the system switched the vessel control processes to automatic mode and, as a result, reduced the risk of emergencies. The use of automated data mining tools made it possible to neutralize the negative influence of the “human factor” of the navigator and to reduce the average maneuvering time during vessel navigation to 23 %

Abstract:
The aim of the study is to develop modern conceptual approaches to the construction of decision support systems in navigation, to determine the theoretical and practical foundations for creating such systems and priority ways of their practical implementation. From the analysis of recent publications, it has been revealed that the widespread use of new information technologies and modern technical means of navigation leads to an increase in the detail of the present navigation situation, but at the same time its assessment becomes more complicated and the time available to the navigator for analysis and development of the necessary control decision is reduced. For this reason, the development of decision support systems (DSS) for the navigator, which use new meaningful models of the hazard identification process for navigating a ship in the event of prerequisites for an emergency, is an urgent task of the present time. The creation of such systems will reduce the negative impact of the human factor on the processes of ship traffic control. The article develops theoretical and practical foundations for constructing a DSS for a navigator, taking into account the peculiarities of the movement of ships, the process of human interaction with technical means of navigation. The article develops theoretical and practical foundations for constructing a DSS for a navigator, taking into account the peculiarities of the movement of ships, the process of human interaction with technical means of navigation. New mathematical models of control over the process of divergence of ships are proposed. The classification of ships according to the degree of danger is carried out, depending on the change in the angle of the line of their relative movement. Criteria for a quantitative assessment of the hazard level of a ships based on the analysis of changes in the angle of the line of its relative motion are presented. The results obtained are the basis for further increasing the efficiency of the functioning of the ergatic system «man - technical means of navigation» and the comprehensive implementation of the achievements of new information technologies in the ship control processes.

Abstract:
A Pseudo-satellite system that transmits signals similar to GNSS can provide positioning services in places where GNSS signals are not captured and have enormous potential for indoor machine system and airports. Different paths of the device have different carrier phase initial solution positioning accuracy. Existing methods rely on measuring instruments or use many coordinate points for solving ambiguity resolution (AR), which creates inconvenience for real-time ground positioning. This study aims to find a new on-the-fly (OTF) method to achieve high accuracy and convenient positioning. A new method is proposed based on a two-difference observation model for ground-based high-precision point positioning. We used an adaptive particle swarm algorithm to solve the initial solution, followed by a nonlinear least-squares method to optimize the localization solution. It is free of priori information or measuring instruments. We designed several different paths, such as circular trajectory and square trajectory, to study the positioning accuracy of the solution. Simulation experiments with different trajectories showed that geometric changes significantly impact solutions. In addition, it does not require precise time synchronization of the base stations, making the whole system much easier to deploy. We built a real-world pseudo-satellite system and used a multi-sensor crewless vehicle as a receiver. Real-world experiments showed that our approach could achieve centimeter-level positioning accuracy in applications.

Abstract:
The article discusses the determination of navigational data corruption, which received by the satellite navigation system as well as traffic control of ground mobile robots. It also specifies the movement features of ground robots, which affect the data integrity monitoring. It proposes an algorithm of control to implement the methods of autonomous onboard monitoring of the navigational data integrity. The algorithm is based on the equations of signal correspondence in various parts of the control system. It is designed to determine the inoperability of the satellite navigation system that implies the loss of signal and failure in the navigation problem solution. The algorithm takes into account the non-deterministic nature of moving ground robot with possible stops in the process of following the trajectory. The article considers the implementation variants of algorithm to assess reliability for the control system containing additional sensors of the robot’s displacement and for the hardware-redundant system containing no additional sensors. The results of modeling the movement of a ground mobile robot along an arbitrary trajectory in case of navigational data corruption are presented. The features of algorithm based on the simulation results are described in the article. The authors considered variants of robot control in case of navigational data corruption. The structure of the system and a method for controlling a mobile robot in case of satellite navigation system failures are also proposed. The method is based on the control mode in the system, according to the measured data of the position of the robot in the case of navigational data corruption or otherwise according to the data calculated from the robot model. The implementation of the method makes it possible to avoid significant deviations of the robot from a given trajectory of movement at intervals of signal loss of the satellite navigation system.

<p>A solution to data ageing requirements in time critical ship system like fire control system is presented. In an operational sea borne platform, navigation requirements for the onboard systems are fulfilled by ring laser gyro-based inertial navigation system. For critical systems like fire control system, navigational data must be delivered in real time without any delay. However due to delay occurring in processing of raw information and transmission of data on interface bus some latency is introduced. Algorithm for an asynchronous message transmission technique from inertial navigation system to user system to meet its latency requirements is discussed. Latency requirement is achieved by sending a separate message with the time stamp for the instance the first byte of 100 Hz attitude data is received at the processing computer of navigation system.</p><p><strong>Defence Science Journal, Vol. 66, No. 1, January 2016, pp. 26-29, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.14429/dsj.66.8502</strong></p>

Abstract:
This article focuses on an engineered system that uses the advantages of available modern technology, including Global Positioning System satellites, inertial reference systems, flight management systems (specialized computers), and autopilots. More than a decade ago, 85 member states of the International Civil Aviation Organization endorsed a global Communications, Navigation, Surveillance, and Automated Traffic Management concept. This concept, called Future Air Navigation System II, advocates a change from terrestrial-based technology to space-based technology and digital communication. Extensive use is made of satellites for both navigation and communication. In 1995, the first-generation system was placed in use over the Pacific, where aircraft were out of range of the older radio control systems for lengthy time periods. Perhaps the evolution in aviation technology has parallels in the past, when ASME codes for safe boilers and pressure vessels, as well as elevators and escalators were voluntarily adopted and, eventually, legislated into practice. Aviation is a vital national and international service. Problems of safety and efficient use of assets require solution.

Abstract:
Cette thèse traite du guidage et du pilotage de véhicules aériens qui peuvent assurer des missions dans des lieux particulièrement hostiles, dangereux ou inaccessibles avec des véhicules conventionnels. Nous sommes tout d'abord motivés par le scénario de couverture, qui est généralement un processus long pouvant utiliser un grand nombre de personnes et d'équipements. Or, la nature de la couverture nécessite un véhicule aérien avec des capacités de vol stationnaire. Pour cela, nous nous intéressons alors aux multirotors, qui sont considérés comme une bonne étude de cas pour concevoir, analyser et mettre en œuvre des stratégies de contrôle de vol.En réalité, de nombreux défis sont encore ouverts pour ce qui concerne le scénario de couverture comme la faisabilité, l’optimalité en visitant tous les points d’intérêts. De plus, un système de contrôle robuste est indispensable pour contrer des effets néfastes tel le vent. Par ailleurs, la conception d'un algorithme de contrôle répondant à certaines exigences (structure simple, précision, énergie minimale consommée) constitue un défi supplémentaire. Ensuite, notre travail introduit un modèle mathématique générique pour les multi-rotors en considérant l’effet du vent.Dans la première partie du manuscrit, nous proposons des planificateurs en utilisant comme base l'algorithme RRT* (optimal Rapidly-exploring Random Tree). En fait, dans les grands espaces, un grand nombre de nœuds est généré augmentant alors le temps de calcul et la mémoire consommée. Pour y remédier, une procédure de suppression est impliquée pendant le processus « ReWire » pour les réduire. De plus, un planificateur multidirectionnel qui renvoie un ensemble de chemins optimaux à partir d'un point de départ et d'un ensemble de points objectifs est proposé. Notre travail introduit également une stratégie CPP (Coverage path-planning) optimale dans un espace contraint. Celle-ci consiste à procéder par un algorithme en deux phases. Dans la première, un planificateur multidirectionnel est utilisé pour définir les chemins les plus courts de chaque point à ses voisins. Dans la seconde phase, au moyen des coûts entre les points, le chemin global le plus court est obtenu en résolvant un problème de voyageur en utilisant des algorithmes génétiques. Puis, compte tenu de l'énergie embarquée limitée, un problème de routage est adapté et est résolu par la méthode de savings. Dans une seconde partie, nous nous sommes penchés sur la conception d'un système de pilotage efficace permettant au véhicule de suivre une trajectoire paramétrée dans le temps. D’une part nous proposons une extension de la commande par modèle interne au non-linéaire (NLIMC). Notre technique repose sur l’utilisation du principe de base IMC pour synthétiser un contrôleur non linéaire qui fait intervenir la propriété de platitude. D’autre part, nous proposons une autre forme de contrôleur dont la structure apparente est un PID mais dans lequel est incorporée la technique des modes glissants que l'on appellera aussi PID non linéaire bien qu’il diffère de l’existant. Cette combinaison a l’avantage de conduire à un bon niveau de robustesse fourni par les modes glissants et en même temps à un bon comportement spécifié par la structure PID. En outre, en guise de complément, nous proposons deux contrôleurs redondants basés sur deux principes distincts afin de booster et d’améliorer les capacités de tout contrôleur. Le premier est basé sur l’approche MFC (Model-Free Control) tandis que le second est basé sur les modes glissants dynamiques DSMC (Dynamic Sliding Mode Controller). Enfin, pour montrer les performances de ces contrôleurs, nous avons effectué une série de tests avec plusieurs illustrations et scénarios, nous avons dressé un tableau de comparaison avec les approches conventionnelles. Les résultats issus des simulations numériques et ceux des tests expérimentaux réalisés sur un drone quadrotor se sont avérés cohérents et semblent bien prometteurs
This thesis deals with the guidance and control of aerial vehicles, which can also ensure missions in hostile, dangerous environments, or inaccessible workspaces with conventional vehicles. First, we are motivated by the coverage scenario, which is in general a long process, requiring a large number of individuals and specific equipment. However, the nature of sensing coverage requires an aerial vehicle with hovering capabilities. For this purpose, we are interested in multirotors that are considered as a good case study to design, analyze and implement flight control strategies.As matter of fact, many challenges are still open with respect to the coverage scenario such as for instance the feasibility and the optimality when passing through the Points of Interest. In addition, a robust control system is essential to mitigate the adverse effects such as the wind. Moreover, designing a control algorithm, which meet some requirements (simplicity, accuracy, consumed energy, etc.) constitutes a complementary challenge. Then, our work introduces a generic mathematical model for multirotors flying under the effect of wind.In a first part, we propose planners using as a basis the optimal Rapidly-exploring Random Tree (RRT*) algorithm. In fact, in large workspaces, a large number of nodes is generated and then increasing the computation time and the consumed memory. To counter these latter, a removal procedure is involved during the rewiring process. In addition, a multidirectional planner that returns a set of optimal paths from a starting point and a set of objective points is proposed. Our work also introduces an optimal Coverage path-planning (CPP) strategy in a constrained workspace. This one proceeds through a two-phases algorithm. In the first one, a Connected Multi-directional planner is used to define the shortest paths from each point to its neighbors. In the second phase, by means of the pair-wise costs between points, the overall shortest path is obtained by solving a Traveling Salesman Problem using Genetic Algorithms. Then, taking into account the limited on-board energy, a Capacitated-Vehicle Routing Problem is adapted and solved by the savings approach.In a second part, we study the design of an effective control system allowing the vehicle to track a trajectory parameterized in time. On the one hand, we propose an extension to nonlinear systems of the Internal Model Control (NLIMC). Our technique is based on the use of the basic IMC principle to synthesize a nonlinear controller that involves the property of flatness. On the other hand, we propose another form of controller whose apparent structure is a PID but in which the technique of sliding modes is incorporated that will also call the nonlinear PID (NLPID). This combination has the advantage to lead to a good level of robustness provided by the sliding modes and at the same time to a good behavior specified by the PID structure. Besides, as a complement, we present two redundant controllers based on two distinct principles in order to boost and to improve the capabilities of any controller. The first one is based on the Model-Free Control (MFC) approach while the second one is based on Dynamic Sliding Mode Controller (DSMC).Finally, to highlight the performance of these controllers, we have performed a series of tests with several illustrations and scenarios and we have drawn up a comparison table with conventional approaches. The results of both the numerical simulations and the experimentation that are performed on a quadrotor are consistent and seem to be quite promising

Abstract:
With an increasing need for greater traffic safety, there is an increasing demand for means by which solutions to the traffic safety problem can be studied. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the feasibility of using an autonomous indoor navigation system as a component in a demonstration system for studying cooperative vehicular scenarios. Our method involves developing and evaluating such a navigation system. Our navigation system uses a pre-existing localization system based on passive RFID, odometry and a particle filter. The localization system is used to estimate the robot pose, which is used to calculate a trajectory to the goal. A control system with a feedback loop is used to control the robot actuators and to drive the robot to the goal.   The results of our evaluation tests show that the system generally fulfills the performance requirements stated for the tests. There is however some uncertainty about the consistency of its performance. Results did not indicate that this was caused by the choice of localization techniques. The conclusion is that an autonomous navigation system using the aforementioned localization techniques is plausible for use in a demonstration system. However, we suggest that the system is further tested and evaluated before it is used with applications where accuracy is prioritized.

Abstract:
Visual Aids for the blind people is an important subject. Apparently visually impaired individuals get impeded by certain hurdles in everyday life. This work proposes an indoor navigation system for visually impaired people. In particular, the goal of this study is to develop a robust, independent and portable aid to assist a user to navigate familiar as well as unfamiliar areas. The algorithm uses the data from Microsoft Xbox Kinect 360 which makes a 3D map of the indoor areas and detects the depth and estimates the relative distance and angle to an obstacle/human. To ensure the accuracy, Kinect tool is enabled with a colour camera to capture real-time details of surroundings which are then processed accordingly. Besides, the developed aid makes the user aware of environmental changes through a Bluetooth enabled headphones used as audio output device. The trials were conducted on six blindfolded volunteers who successfully navigated across various locations in the university campus such as classrooms, hallways, and stairs. Moreover, the user could also track a particular person through output generated from processed images. Hence, the work suggests a significant improvement for existing visual aids which may be very helpful in customisation as well as the adaptability of these devices.

Abstract:
An autonomous navigational system for a mobile robot was developed based on a Laser-Range-Finder-based path planning and navigational algorithms. The system was enhanced by incorporating collision avoidance algorithms using data from a sonar sensor array, and further improved by establishing two virtual regions in front of the robot for obstacle detection and avoidance. Several virtual detector bands with varying dimensions were also added to the sides of the robot to check for rotational clearance safety and to determine the direction of rotation. The autonomous navigational system was tested extensively under indoor environment. Test results showed that the system performed satisfactorily in navigating the mobile robot in three structured mazes under indoor conditions.
An artificial landmark localization algorithm was also developed to continuously record the positions of the robot whilst it was moving. The algorithm was tested on a grid layout of 6 m x 6 m. The performance of the artificial landmark localization technique was compared with odometric and inertial measurements obtained using a dead-reckoning method and a gyroscope-corrected dead-reckoning method. The artificial landmark localization method resulted in much smaller root mean square error (0.033 m) of position estimates compared to the other two methods (0.175 m and 0.135 m respectively).

Abstract:
This paper develops a control that combines deterministic and stochastic optimal control solutions to the problem of safe navigation around a spherical obstacle in order to reach a way-point location. The solution for navigation towards the way-point is based on the deterministic minimum time optimal control. Since the intent of the obstacle is unknown to the navigating vehicle, the vehicle anticipates this uncertainty and uses a stochastic optimal control for navigation around the obstacle. The two navigation solutions are combined based on their value functions. Results are illustrated by numerical simulations.

Full text
Abstract:
Imagery collected via Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) platforms has become popular in recent years due to improvements in a Digital Single-Lens Reflex (DSLR) camera (centimeter and sub-centimeter), lower operation costs as compared to human piloted aircraft, and the ability to collect data over areas with limited ground access. Many different application (e.g., forestry, agriculture, geology, archaeology) are already using and utilizing the advantages of UAS data. Although, there are numerous UAS image processing workflows, for each application the approach can be different. In this study, we developed a processing workflow of UAS imagery collected in a dense forest (e.g., coniferous/deciduous forest and contiguous wetlands) area allowing users to process large datasets with acceptable mosaicking and georeferencing errors. Imagery was acquired with near-infrared (NIR) and red, green, blue (RGB) cameras with no ground control points. Image quality of two different UAS collection platforms were observed. Agisoft Metashape, a photogrammetric suite, which uses SfM (Structure from Motion) techniques, was used to process the imagery. The results showed that an UAS having a consumer grade Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) onboard had better image alignment than an UAS with lower quality GNSS.

Ramnath, Rishabh, Neale Kinnear, Sritika Chowdhury, and T. Hyatt. Interacting with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay when driving: The effect on driver performance. TRL, January 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.58446/sjxj5756.

Full text
Abstract:
This study aimed to assess the impact of interacting with two infotainment systems, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, on four driver performance measures: reaction time, driving behaviour, eyes-off road and self-reported performance. It also compared the results with other forms of driver impairment studied previously. Twenty regular Android users took part in the Android Auto trial and 20 regular Apple users took part in the Apple CarPlay trial. Each participant completed three 20 minute drives in TRL’s DigiCar simulator: control (no interaction with infotainment system), voice enabled and touch enabled. The route was divided into sections and participants performed music, navigation, texting and calling tasks at specific times during the drive. Compared with the control drive, participants in both trials showed a reduction in average speed, increase in deviation of headway and larger deviation of lane position for most tasks; this effect was greater when using touch features than voice features. Eye gaze measures indicated that participants did not meet the NHTSA criteria for most of the tasks when using touch controls for both systems, but they met the criteria when using voice control. Self-reported data suggested that participants found interacting through touch to be more difficult and distracting than voice. Most critically, reaction time to a stimulus on the road ahead was significantly higher when selecting music through Spotify when using Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Participants also failed to react more to the stimulus on the road ahead when engaging with either Android Auto or Apple CarPlay compared with a control drive. Comparison with previous driver impairment studies showed that the increase in reaction time when interacting with either system using touch was higher than previously measured forms of impairment, including texting and hand-held calls.

Abstract:
Over the last century, agriculture has evolved from a labor-intensive industry to one that uses mechanized, high-powered production systems. The introduction of robotic technology in agriculture could be a new step towards labor productivity. By mimicking or extending human skills, robots overcome critical human limitations, including the ability to operate in harsh agricultural environments. In this context, in 2014 the development of the first agricultural robot in Mexico (“Voltan”) began at Chapingo Autonomous University. The research’s objective was to develop an autonomous multitasking vehicle for agricultural work. As a result of this development, a novel suspension system was created. In addition, autonomous navigation between crop rows was achieved through computer vision, allowing crop monitoring, fertilizer application and, in general, pest and disease control.

Brodie, Katherine, Brittany Bruder, Richard Slocum, and Nicholas Spore. Simultaneous mapping of coastal topography and bathymetry from a lightweight multicamera UAS. Engineer Research and Development Center (U.S.), August 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.21079/11681/41440.

Full text
Abstract:
A low-cost multicamera Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) is used to simultaneously estimate open-coast topography and bathymetry from a single longitudinal coastal flight. The UAS combines nadir and oblique imagery to create a wide field of view (FOV), which enables collection of mobile, long dwell timeseries of the littoral zone suitable for structure-from motion (SfM), and wave speed inversion algorithms. Resultant digital surface models (DSMs) compare well with terrestrial topographic lidar and bathymetric survey data at Duck, NC, USA, with root-mean-square error (RMSE)/bias of 0.26/–0.05 and 0.34/–0.05 m, respectively. Bathymetric data from another flight at Virginia Beach, VA, USA, demonstrates successful comparison (RMSE/bias of 0.17/0.06 m) in a secondary environment. UAS-derived engineering data products, total volume profiles and shoreline position, were congruent with those calculated from traditional topo-bathymetric surveys at Duck. Capturing both topography and bathymetry within a single flight, the presented multicamera system is more efficient than data acquisition with a single camera UAS; this advantage grows for longer stretches of coastline (10 km). Efficiency increases further with an on-board Global Navigation Satellite System–Inertial Navigation System (GNSS-INS) to eliminate ground control point (GCP) placement. The Appendix reprocesses the Virginia Beach flight with the GNSS–INS input and no GCPs.
